So Duck has been found. Yesterday by mid day
there were two of them
.
Today there were three.
When my husband mowed the lawn they seemed put out.
When it started pouring rain they stood in it. I am enjoying watching
them. I also enjoyed book club last evening. The food was delicious.
We try to match the theme of the book to our meal. We had a version of a
Shepherd’s pie, Yorkshire pudding, tea sandwiches, trifle/Eton mess.
It was so much food I had to switch out the lunch plates for the dinner plates.
We read the book, The Mythmakers, by John Hendrix. It’s about Tolkien and C.S Lewis.
It’s purely coincidence that I just finished The Fellowship of the Ring,
by Tolkien. It is the first time I have read it. And this evening we watched
our way through disc one and part of disc two. Yikes. My imaginings
when I read the book were nothing like the movie. I am not a book
reviewer. But, after, or while, reading the book several book club members
bought the book as a gift for some of their Tolkien friends or family. I too,
purchased it, figuring I would pass it around to my children, and the shorter
ones, many of who have read it.
